Kevin Love can opt out of his contract and become a free agent next summer. But 25-year-old Love said he intends to stay with LeBron James and the Cavs.
''I'm committed to this team, committed long term to the end goal and that's to win championships,'' he said.
Love was introduced Tuesday by the Cavs, who acquired him in a blockbuster, three-team trade that instantly turned Cleveland, which won just 33 games last season, into an NBA championship favorite.
